Thanks for your great comments!
As far as iReal Pro being suitable for jazz composition.
There Negatives to this app....
1) you need another device to access your exported midi/or wave file. (dumb!)
I used PCchord app: while searching to confirm what chords I was using for making my piano progression...
but iReal Pro chord chart doesn't have all the chords below.
to answer your question:
Does it have something special meaning to write Fm7(b5)/C# instead of Db9?
I would have to replace en-harmonic spellings and see if
iReal Pro treats the chord differently... I doubt it....
I am not a fan of chord naming.... anyways ....specially when dealing with counterpoint harmony
which I am working on for my next Song...
Once I am finished with writing my counterpoint harmony... I would probably spell my chords correctly.
In short chord naming before the song is finished is not my cup of tea!
counterpoint harmony changes everything.... so the chords
below doesn't
help me much until the song is finished....

http://www.scales-chords.com/C#9 = F G# B D# / C#
Ddim(maj13) add(m2) = F G# B D# / C#
D#9/11#5sus/C# = F G# B D# / C#
Emaj13 add(m2) = F G# B D# / C# omit(E)
Fm7(b5)/C# = F G# B D# / C#
Fº7 add(#5)/C# = F G# B D# / C#
F#maj9/11/13sus /C# = F G# B D# / C# omit(G)
G7b5 add(#5) add(m2) /C#= F G# B D# / C# omit(G)
G#m6/11 /C# = F G# B D# / C#
Amaj9b5 add(#5) /C# = F G# B D# / C# omit(A)
A#m11 add(m2) /C# = F G# B D# / C# omit(A#)
B6/9b5 /C# = F G# B D# / C#
Cm(maj11)#5 add(m2)/ C# = F G# B D# / C# omit(C)
I just got ireal pro: Sax Avenue was experimental, to see what is possible with odd chord progressions.
hope this post helps answer your question ....
thanks for posting:)
